What kind of politics emerges under dire conditions of violence and precarity in the context of transit migration across Mexico? How is sanctuary practiced and gendered? This dissertation analyzes a range of experiences of transit and sanctuary practices of hospitality, care and solidarity, particularly those of marginalized women, nonbinary individuals, and grassroots movements that reveal an emerging pattern of transnational citizenship from below. As a defining issue of the 21st century, international migrations have provided an occasion for the rebirth of virulent forms of nationalist citizenship both from above and below, and the expansion of the coercive functions of the state. In the Americas, masses of displaced and dispossessed people cross international borders exposing themselves to the most perilous journeys throughout Mexico en routeto the United States. This dissertation sheds light on how civil society in Mexico has hastened to respond to the pressing needs of mobile populations, precipitated by a binational deportation regime that returns people to the poorest and most violent countries in the Western hemisphere. While the literature has privileged the (receiving) state as paradigmatic locus of power, and its institutional and geographical span as the main political domain, I argue for a notion of "citizenship in transit" that posits transit as a stark time-space within which the dispute to define the parameters and participants of citizenship unfolds. Taking "encounter" as a level of analysis, I shift the focus away from "foreigner" or "citizen" as identities and legal statuses, and direct attention instead to practice, to how people "do" citizenship. My study builds on data collected during fifteen months of ethnographic fieldwork involving participant observation and in-depth interviews with sanctuary workers, asylum seekers, undocumented migrants, volunteers, activists, lawyers, humanitarian personnel, and government officials in Mexico and Central America. My core argument is two-fold. In a material sense, transit becomes an enduring time-space wherein the multiplication of agents and sites of government undermine the rights of citizenship for everyone. As a set of political practices, "citizenship in transit" denotes how ordinary people re-invent citizenship beyond the legal designation and the epistemological framework of the nation-state.

Lives in Transit chronicles the dangerous journeys of Central American migrants in transit through Mexico. Drawing on fieldwork in humanitarian aid shelters and other key sites, Wendy A. Vogt examines the multiple forms of violence that migrants experience as their bodies, labor, and lives become implicated in global and local economies that profit from their mobility as racialized and gendered others. She also reveals new forms of intimacy, solidarity, and activism that have emerged along transit routes over the past decade. Through the stories of migrants, shelter workers, and local residents, Vogt encourages us to reimagine transit as a site of both violence and precarity as well as social struggle and resistance.

The demographic shockwaves of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Europe produced tremendous change in the national economies and affected the political, social, and cultural development of these societies. Migration historians have begun to connect the various European migratory streams during this period with transcontinental migration to North America. This volume contains empirical studies on German in-migration, internal migration, and transatlantic emigration from the 1820s to the 1930s, placed in a comparative perspective of Polish, Swedish, and Irish migration to North America. Special emphasis is placed on the role of women in the process of migration. By looking specifically at postwar Germany, Klaus J. Bade underscores the relevance of this history in a concluding essay.

Since 1995, the Nations in Transit series has monitored the status of democratic change from Central Europe to Eurasia and pinpointed for policymakers, researchers, journalists, and democracy advocates alike the greatest reform challenges and reform opportunities facing the countries and territories that make up this vast geographic space. Covering 29 countries and administrative areas, Nations in Transit 2008 evalutes a 12-month period, from January 1 to December 31, 2007, and provides comparative ratings and in-depth analysis of electoral processes, civil society, independent media, national democratic governance, local democratic governance, judicial framework & independence, and corruption. Freedom House--which for more than a quarter century has rated global political rights and civil liberties in its benchmark Freedom in the World surveys--has developed a ratings system that allows for comparative analysis of reforms. Nations in Transit findings have drawn important linkages between democratic accountability, good governance, and the rule of law. In doing so it has made clear the essential nature of all these elements to the development of stable, free, and prosperous societies. The results are incisive, authoritative, and comprehensive.
